Just some fun shots of our evening out on felucca. We had to be motored into the dock as the wind died.

Took a felucca ride around Elephantine Island. Then afternoon tea at the Palace (I forget the name) but gorgeous. Tea nothing like ours though. View was spectacular.
Pengembara FYI the guy in the suit is our security guard. We have one at every place we go plus a police escort.
Nancy is right. Everything looks exotic, even the sailboats. The tea, however, can't hold a candle to ours. For one thing, no costumes. [Andi]

All but six of us went to Abu Simbel. We stayed behind to walk around. Not the brightest idea as it is about 100 but we shopped in local market and saw some sights.
Later we go on a felucca rideBaca lagi

Every afternoon we have a nice surprise waiting for us. Quite a creative stateroom attendant (he cleans up 2x/day).

Pengembara This is just an amazing trip! Nothing can ever compare. (Well, except maybe Meat Raffle at the shore?) Hope you ate that whole cake!
Pengembara I shared cake with everyone. After already having dessert (!) a small piece was enough.

LUXOR TEMPLE 1870 BC (I think. I lost track somewhere along the trek). Ramses II. Huge huge temple. These guys really love themselves.
WOWOWOWOW!!!! Amazing. Gorgeous. Unbelievable. And seeing it at sunset is even more dramatic. What a trip. [Andi]
